THE INK. THE APPLICATION.

A more specific brief. A more useful conversation.

Some print jobs begin with a familiar ink reference. Others begin with a target shade, a new material or a result that needs closer attention. Use this enquiry route to discuss a particular color or formulation requirement with Jazeera Inks. The available product or sourcing options can then be considered against your brief.

Application starting points

  • Brand color enquiries
  • Matching an existing printed reference
  • New substrate or process requirements

Product suitability depends on the specific ink, substrate and production conditions. Share your application to discuss available options.

A CONSIDERED APPROACH

It starts with
your application.

Bring a clear color reference

A physical sample or established color reference gives the conversation a concrete starting point. Describe the lighting and finish under which the final result will be assessed; a screen image is useful context but not a physical color standard.

Describe the complete application

Include the substrate, printing process, current ink system and any finishing operations. The same target color can appear different across materials, so the reference and production surface need to be considered together.

Agree the practical requirements

Share your expected quantity, timing and acceptance criteria. Ask which options are available and what evaluation is needed before committing to a production order.

BEFORE YOU ORDER

A little more clarity.

Useful answers to help you prepare your next ink enquiry.

Does an enquiry guarantee a bespoke formulation?

No. This is a starting point for discussing your requirement. Product availability, sourcing possibilities, quantities and any development or matching work need to be confirmed for the individual enquiry.

Is a photograph enough for a color match?

A photograph helps explain the intended appearance, but lighting, cameras and displays can change how color looks. Include a physical sample or agreed color reference when a close match matters.

What should a custom requirement include?

Describe the target result, material, printing process, present product and what needs to change. Add the expected quantity, timing and any testing or documentation requirements.
